.NEAR TERM...
(Today and tonight)
Issued at 1255 AM CDT Tue Jul 15 2025

Some patchy fog could develop again early this morning but enough
uncertainty that currently don`t have a mention in the forecast.
Will need to monitor obs. A few of the CAMs show scattered showers
developing across parts of southern OK overnight into this morning
due to some weak WAA that might develop. Otherwise, south to
southwest winds are expected today with temperatures warming into
the low to mid 90s.

Models show one or more disturbances/MCVs approaching/moving across
the area today. Current satellite show an MCV in west central TX
moving this way. This will bring another chance for showers/storms
to portions of the area with chances (20-30%) currently confined to
parts of southern OK and north TX. However, depending on the track
of the MCV, chances may need to be expanded further west and north.
Heavy rain and isolated areas of flooding will be the main concern,
especially in SE parts of the fa which have received several inches
of rain over the last couple of days.

Several of the models/CAMs show any showers/storms diminishing or
ending this evening with the loss of heating with most of the fa
remaining dry Tues. night. Temperatures are expected to fall into
the 70s tonight.

.SHORT TERM...
(Wednesday through Thursday night)
Issued at 1255 AM CDT Tue Jul 15 2025

Models show a shortwave moving across the northern Plains which will
push a weak near/into the area Wednesday into Thursday. The front
will bring a chance (20-40%) for showers/storms to parts of northern
and central OK, mostly near and north of I-40.

Highs in the 90s with lows in the upper 60s and 70s are expected for
the middle of the week.

&&

.LONG TERM...
(Friday through Monday)
Issued at 1255 AM CDT Tue Jul 15 2025

Models show the upper high trying to begin to build into the region
towards the end of the week with high pressure influencing much
of the area over the weekend into early next week. This will bring
a drier forecast to much of the area.

Temperatures are also expected to gradually warm with highs expected
to become more consistent in the mid/upper 90s to low 100s over the
weekend into next week. Unfortunately, we won`t be getting rid of
the humidity quickly. With the hot and humid conditions, triple
digit heat index values will become increasingly likely across at
least portions of the fa. Heat advisories could be needed for
multiple days later this week into early next week.

southern Oklahoma and western north Texas this afternoon, but
otherwise the rest of the area is expected to remain dry.
